Fora was planning something devious. She was going to go talk to this Matt fellow to piss of Jennifer. She was more powerful than her anyways so she wasn't threatened a bit. After lunch was Latin, and guess what she was learning about? The Greek gods is correct. She walked up to her teacher who pointed her towards the Matt boy. She walked over sitting next to him. He smiled to her.
"I'm Matt Secret," He said sticking his hand out. Fora smiled and shook his hand carefully. He was cute for a boy she must say. She was really socially awkward with them seeing as she's never really talked to any friendly or romantically since Thoth, but that is an entirely different story that will most likely come back later.
"I'm Fora Tempus," She said. He smiled. As he was about to say something the teacher started talking about how the gods came to be. She wasn't paying attention of course. This was 7th grade nothing really important to be honest. About fifteen minutes later the teacher started calling random people up to the board to arrange this timeline of which god came first and blah. Everyone kept getting it wrong. Terribly wrong,
"Fora can you come arrange it?" The teacher asked. He was a tall thin handsome man. Fora nodded and ordered it less than thirty seconds. She stepped beside tiredly. He looked at it and smiled. "Entirely correct," Fora went back to her seat and once again stopped paying no attention. Fifteen minutes later Fora was called again to give a summary about the daughter of Kronos Fora. This is what she gets for entering 7th grade in the middle of first semester.
"Fora was the daughter of Kronos and Maia. She was the full blooded sister of Hermes. She could control time to her will, and tended to get caught in the middle of everything. She sided with the gods during the Titan war because she started to not like her father's ruling. Rhea her step mother often tried to kick her out, but gave up when Kronos got angry at her for cheating on him. She was an archer, but excelled in sword fighting. She became a huntress of Artemis after the war and everything settled down." She finished. The teacher once again looked impressed because everyone else said like one sentence about the person they got. Fora sat down again. Matt was a good student you could tell because he paid attention at everything the teacher said. Another fifteen minutes went by and once again the teacher was asking questions and calling random people.
"Who was born first Apollo or Artemis?" he asked. Fora laughed in her head. She heard this argument for over a thousand years. It always stayed interesting. Apollo kept continuously calling Artemis little sis. Fora sat up a bit answering his question with ease.
"Artemis," she said. The teacher asked her for evidence. "She helped her mother Leto give birth to Apollo." Fora said. He nodded approvingly and moved on to the next poor bloke. After class Mr. Thomas called her over. "Yes Mr. Thomas you needed me," She asked. He smiled and pointed to a desk chair up front. She sat down and he stood bending a bit.
"I'm impressed by your knowledge of Latin and like to move you to the advanced class." He said carefully. Fora blinked letting his words register into her ears. "That class I do teach to your schedule would have to be moved a bit."
"Mrs. Spar wants me to move to advanced ELA and Mr. Kent wants me to move to Pre Algebra." Fora said rubbing the back of her neck.
"I have a few students who are in all advanced classes don't fret. So will you be in my advanced class?" He asked. Fora nodded not wanting to upset him. She had science and social studies which she also learn about ancient civilizations in to go and gods know what her fate was there to. She walked there annoyed. Advanced classes were going to suck. Each class was an hour. Lunch was twenty minutes, and specials were another hour. The special for Fora this term was gym next term was choice between art and music. She was choosing music.
"Hello Ms. Tempus I'm Mrs. Benson your science teacher." She shook her hand. She seemed really nice and by the end of class, Fora decided that she loved her. She of course said she'd like her in advanced physical science. Fora said sure why not.
"Great I'll talk with the other teachers," Fora nodded walking to Social Studies. It was all about Mesopotamia today and Fora was in that era to and answered the teacher's questions with ease. That teacher said advanced to. Fora accepted and walked to gym. She was already dying. She prayed there wasn't an advanced gym to because if there was she might die. There wasn't she found out, but there was an afterschool program for gymnastics and crap like that. The girls were doing gymnastics today, and the guys were doing lacrosse. Fora flipped across the mat easily training like a huntress does. The gym teacher said she should join the school's gymnastics' team. Fora accepted knowing the teacher would probably like her more. By the end of the day Artemis picked her up in a white SUV. Of course Apollo was driving. It must have been his sun car. Fora got in carefully throwing her bag to the side and buckling her seat belt.
"How was your first day?" Hermes said popping out from the back. Fora jumped and slapped him across the face. He climbed over moving my bag and sat next to me. "So how was it?" He asked. Fora huffed and glared at the three Olympians who were looking at her. "Are you going to reply or what?" Fora sighed.
"I am now being moved to advanced level classes and I am on the school's gymnastics' team." She answered frowning. Apollo smiled along with the other two. "Wipe the grins off your face I'm not happy right now trust me." Fora turned towards the window and Apollo started the car driving off. When he got on an empty road he flashed to Olympus. Fora got out, but Hermes caught her arm giving her bag to her. "Thanks and where am I staying for now?"
"My house," Her brother smiled. Fora smirked a little and walked with him to the street where all the Olympian houses were. "SO I missed hanging out with you. How have you been other then school?" He asked putting an arm casually around Fora's shoulders. Fora shrugged opening his door. "That wasn't very explanatory." Hermes said smiling. She smiled back.
"I've been fine," she shrugged. "You know just hanging out with the hunters and Artemis now I'm not." She sighed and went into the living room. She hopped on the couch and Hermes sat next to her. "How are you?" She asked putting her feet in his lap.
"I'm my usual Olympian self. Want to watch something?" He asked. Fora shrugged and they acted like a brother and sister for once in a nice way. They stayed up all night laughing and having a good time. Soon enough Fora started a popcorn war. Sad part was she stopped all of a sudden and collapsed having a flashback.
